    Would I be crazy to try and make some side money with a terex 700a?

    I have a Terex D700A. I mostly use it personally but I have also done several side jobs with it. I have done a lot of work to mine to get it in good operating condition to reduce potential down time and repairs while in use. If I see anything that needs attention, I try to go ahead and make...

    Anyone know of a Terex later model scrapers parting out in North America?

    The Ironpeddlers in Monroe,NC parted out a 14D 10-12 years ago, I’m not sure what’s left of it, but you could check with them. https://www.ironpeddlers.com/

    Terex TS14D transmission trouble

    Here is the recommended lubricants chart out of the service manual. Are you getting any transmission fault codes on the gear range indicator? These are good machines if well maintained but the wiring for the transmissions had some short comings and could be challenging to trouble shoot. The...

    New Terex TS24D

    Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the TTS-14 used Allison CLT 3461 just like the standard TS-14.

    New Terex TS24D

    It brought more than I thought it would. I wonder where it’s new home is going to be?

    New Terex TS24D

    I never had much trouble with it sticking to the ejector (at least not a significant amount) but I believe I did see some 14Bs for sale a few years ago that had some type of liner on the ejector and I thought it was a good idea. I think I have also seen a couple that had the ejector heated off...

    New Terex TS24D

    I don’t think it’s a Ritchie overhaul, looks to be very low hours, I would bet less than 500. I’ve only ever seen two or three 24Ds on the internet, I would like to know how many were built. It will be interesting to see what it brings, hopefully whoever gets it will take care of it. I think...

    Terex 82-20 CRT-5434 Dirverter valve

    I’m not sure about a diverter valve, the control valve is mounted on the right side of the transmission (facing the front of the machine). I’m not a mechanic, but I skimmed through my parts & service manuals and didn’t see anything referencing a diverter valve. Chuck Gaul at C&C Repairs in...

    82-50 terex, good,bad or just ugly?

    I have used 82-20Bs and 82-40s before but never been around the 82-50s much. If maintained well and not abused, I think all the 82-20Bs, 30Bs, and 50s were reliable. Some of the features were ahead of there time and showed up on competitive brands later on. I think I recall that when the 82-50...

    There was one posted on YouTube a while back, I believe it was in Missouri.

    Recovered TC12

    Interesting story Tones, thanks for posting. I’m glad they went to all the trouble to recover it. Do you know if it has been restored to operating condition at this point?

    What brands of elevating scrapers used a Hancock design bowl?

    Suspension wasn’t a deal killer for me either but I think most people wanted it. I’ve never operated a Wabco, TS-14s didn’t ride great and I assume the S-17 was a similar ride, but I really like the TS-18s and they rode much better than 14s in my opinion. Terex also didn’t do them selves any...

    What brands of elevating scrapers used a Hancock design bowl?

    Same here, the dealer here at the time had one on rent to a contractor about an hour away from me, not sure what happen to it after that. I don’t understand why Terex didn’t offer the tractor with the ts-14 to give it more power, they also could have built a single engine open bowl to compete...

    What brands of elevating scrapers used a Hancock design bowl?

    This story gives some additional information. After production stopped several of the S-17e tractors were sold with water wagons. http://www.clarendononline.com/news/2003/1009/story_3.htm

    Clarendon Manufacturing built the bowl for the S-17E. http://www.clarendononline.com/news/2000/0831/story_1.htm

    Terex S-14

    Just curious if anyone has ever seen one of these? Terex built it in Brazil around 1982/83 but I was told at least one was brought to the US for field testing with a fleet of Terex scrapers working on Interstate 40 in eastern NC around that time. A mechanic that worked on the project told me it...

    Dressta 175H ??

    I have not been around many of the Dressta branded machines. I spent some time in the 90s operating 175C, 200, & 250E crawler loaders. The 175 and 250 were dependable machines and I enjoyed operating both but they were outdated even at that time. It was hard then to find an operator that had the...

    Dressta 175H ??

    I found some pictures of a Dressta 175H on the internet. Does anyone know if Dressta has these in their product line now? I looked on their web site but did not find anything. It would be interesting to see some specs on it.

    Terex ts14g scraper electrical issues

    Do you have a service manual? The FO code means the problem is related to the front trans, I think that 052 code is the trans is not getting a signal to go in forward or reverse. If you have two of these machines I would take the shifter out of the operational one and try it in the machine that...
